Teacher’s Pet and Assistant!
Every video I pick one of my students to be my Teacher’s Pet, and you are automatically eligible to be the pet just by registering on the website and making a comment or two. To be the Teacher’s Assistant (a step up from pet
)go ahead and fill out the application form here and wait for your name to be called! Of course, an apple for the teacher, or other such forms of bribery *may* influence my choice! (But you didn’t hear that from me!)
Anyway… I am proud to announce the first official HotForWords Teacher’s Assistant, and that person is… (ta da)… Jay - The7MillionDollarMan!

Hello Marina,
What’s happening with your site?
I log in and I can’t comment but at the “TA/Pet” area I’m able to comment.
Is this in regards to the “SNAFU-Reloaded” video that is only viewable at your “UTube” site?
The Snafu video was replaced on YouTube.. the old version is no longer there but it should not affect my site at all.
Hello Marina,
Thanks for your prompt reply.
I just came back to your site and I looked around it it’s normal again.
I thought that it was a joke that you were playing on all of us.
Have you thought of getting a “Yahoo 360″ site for all the “back of the classroom ” chatter?
Why stop at snafu and fubar? Here’s a more complete list:
fubar Fucked up beyond all repair.
janfu Joint army-navy fuck up.
sapfu Surpassing all previous fuck ups.
snafu Situation normal, all fucked up.
tarfu Things are really fucked up.
tuifu The ultimate in fuck ups.

I truly want to be your number one teacher’s pet. I could learn so much
yet I think the position is much more than that - so much more!!
I know you think I need some discipline - maybe keep me in after class
is out - would love to do lines and write out a 100 times or more that
“Hot for Words is so hot for words and I need some discipline”.
I will clean the blackboard, mop the floors and keep the classroom clean
at all times. I won’t just bring an apple for you - I will bring you the best
morning tea known to mankind.
Please HOT FOR WORDS make me NUMERO UNO TEACHER’S PET!!!!!!
Dear teacher
I have filled the application form a long time ago, in a galaxy far far…. uh! oh! Sorry. Well my questions are : have you decided when you will pick the chosen one(s)? Is it already done?
Amicalement,
Your devoted student,
Don Felipe

I want to be the teachers pet for a day please! I’ve watched just about all your videos. I want to see ToxicFrost in one of your videos it would fill me with happiness
*shines up a bushel of apples for the teacher* Here’s enough years supply of apple pies Marina!
My Dear Teacher, I really enjoy learning from you and would love to become your teachers assistant for a spell. I really do enjoy learning the proper use of words and their origins. I feel that too many words of our language are misused by folks simply trying to sound smart and you have given us a chance to really fix that by educating us so that we dont get the opposite result, ie. sounding dumb. I thank you for your consideration regarding the aforementioned position as your adjutant. I would be an assiduous coadjutor, diligent and amenable. I will walk the dog for you and i do windows.
phuuuuuu! Yes, it wasn’t easy as i think before.
And i think that i am not 100% the right for the HFW-TA position, but i submitted the application.
Thanks for asking me!

What is the origin of the geological term, orogenesis? There are many ways to teach people new ideas, concepts and words. I think you are teaching a whole new classroom of eager STUDents. Some additional information that your audience will enjoy is how the mechanics of plate tectonics is the driving force of orogenesis.
First the process of orogenesis creates orogenic belts around the world. These forces are the mountain building through the eruption of deep molten lave penetrating Mother Earth along coastal boundaries. As the oceanic plate goes under the continental plate, this is called subduction. So to summarize this lesson. You must have subduction before you have an orogenesis.
I am applying
Marina, Once a TA is selected what are their responsibilities? Are they to assist you in your research? Teachers pet the same as teachers assistant postion? Or it just a fun thing you make in the middle of your vids?
I will apply =)
And will do my best =) hopefully not to long hours of detention :p
I just finished the application part. No math questions, but,
it wasn’t as easy as I thought it would be.
I had to cheat a little - thank gawd for Google search!
Good luck to all who enter!
Is the position still open?
to take
I would be thrilled
any position offered!
no - really, any position

Hi Marina, I have to say the first thing that attracted me to your sight, was the visual Simulation. lol BUT, I have to say, I have learned some things about words I never new!! You got a good imagaination on how to use your talents to include learning instead of just T/A lol Anyway, I enjoy your vids, and I have never heard anyone say before, you have a very nice Speaking voice. Its pleasant to listen to you talk. I could for hours. Just wanted to give you a positive comment on doing a good job on this crazy internet!!
Take Care,
Bill

me me me pick me *panting*
WAY TO GO TO USC!!!

I filled out the app, I can only hope that if you do pick me that I live up to the job
Jay is so freaking awesome

Im still healing from broken ribs I received from watching Jay’s video. I hope he does a lot more comedy videos in the future. I would pay for a ticket to see him live on stage doing a comedy routine.
I myself wondered if I ever had such an accident how would I recover from it? I would do exactly as Jay did. Make the best of it. Jay your number #1 in my book.
~~~___/)____~~
P.S. Jay, if your reading this. I once knew of a Captain of the tall ship Lady Washington that had a real peg leg. He would even climb up the ratlins with this hand made peg. He preferred it over his normal walking leg because the foot would get caught up in the lines. I freak out when I climb with my own two legs.
Hey Marina hows the word business goin you never do my words though like the word hacker, whore, or horny.
